Gosh, I found they helped almost immediately. I called it my "serotonin high"!

I don't mean to say I felt drugged in any way. It's just life just seemed so much better!!! The "edge" is gone. Of course, that initial serotonin surge has abated and I just feel so even and rational. I'm only on a very low dose, but I must have really needed it. I don't have the stronger emotional ups and downs that used to plague me. I'm more in control of my emotional state. Also, because it's a low dose I think it's a combination of the AD's with my own positive thinking.

There is no arriving, ever. It is all a continual becoming.
